Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] Lib-ify functions in builtin.h

From: Denton Liu <[email-masked]>
Date: Mon, 23 Mar 2020 21:07:50 -0400

Since the last revision, I tried to rewrite the commit messages to be
more subjective but I was also having some trouble with it.

In builtin.h, there exist a couple of functions that are very "lib-ish".
These functions can currently only be called by built-in commands but,
unlike all of the other functions in the header, it does not make sense
to impose this restriction as their functionality can be logically reused
in libgit.

Extract these functions into their own files which should make more
organizational sense.

Changes since v1:

* Rewrite commit messages to be less subjective
